Chapter 153 Burning the Building (Part 1)
Chapter 153: The Fire Building (Part 1)
In the next few days, except for the surrounding world a little noisy, everything else was still normal.
When I returned to the Su Mansion, there were more people greeting him and more enthusiastic, my family invited him and more things to refuse. Several students who had originally left his class in the academy also began to want to return, and relatives at home came to talk about their responsibilities. This was how it was. As expected, human nature was not a strange change.
However, after the "Ding Fengbo" was spread, some people talked about the battle between the Su and Wu families vividly, and more people came to Yushan Academy to visit, which was similar to the song "Shuitu Songtou" when it first came out, but now the people visiting are much more complicated.
For example, the Puyang Yi, a businessman from the Puyang family, also came to find him once and invited him to a party at a certain pleasure boat. With the girl Qilan to accompany him, Ning Yi still had a good impression of the Puyang family, but naturally he refused these parties as usual.
In any case, Qilan was not very attractive to him. He occasionally went to the small building to listen to Yunzhu playing the piano and singing. Qilan was not as good as Yunzhu's attainments in this regard, not to mention that she was already familiar with the taste that Ning Yi loved to listen to. Sometimes she could sing a few quite different songs according to the modern singing style taught by Ning Yi.
Even if Qilan is the head of the courtesan, there is a Yuan Jiner who is one of the four major leaders. She is just unwilling to dance to see her. The noisy bickering throughout the day also overwhelms the feeling of being above the courtesan, but at least she has a true temperament.
A few days later, I met Mr. Qin and Mr. Kang. The two old men joked with his name of "one count at ten steps", but when talking about the entire series of layouts, they all said that they were light and had the style of a general. Later, Kang Xian smiled and said, "It's just that compared to "one count at ten steps", the bandit account of "Blood Hand Man Slaughter" was a bit strange. I asked for it for several days, but I had never heard of anyone who had made such a name in the past..."
The power hidden behind Kang Xian is quite strong. Since he is interested in Ning Yi's recent movement, it is not surprising that he will know about Shibupo. He told Mr. Qin about what Ning Yi was involved in that night. Mr. Qin frowned: "This kind of thing must be eradicated. I have really gotten involved in these people in the martial arts world. I ran away a few of them, afraid of future troubles. Will there be a result at this time?"
Kang Xian smiled and said, "After learning about this, I already knew that the government would issue a document to arrest such strong men. Several nearby prefectures and counties also quickly posted it. This morning, I heard that one person had been intercepted. This person was seriously injured and was killed when he was arrested."
Old Qin nodded: "Since you are taking all your strength, these people will not be able to hide for a few days."
The two of them are considered to be great people in Confucianism. In the past, everyone talked about some principles of being kind to others. But at this time, Mr. Kang opened this, and Qin Siyuan said nothing about any dissatisfaction or persuasion about the fight and killing. Instead, he considered this as a matter that was in front of him.
Kang Xian has been using his influence to intervene in matters these days, and Ning Yi doesn't know about this. But when he heard this, he couldn't help but shake his head and smile.
In the past, when we played chess and leisurely, we probably understood what style the other party was. At this time, we could see more clearly that the two old men in front of us had moral articles on weekdays and were really doing practical things, but they were not vague.
In fact, when we talked about this, we only revolved around Ning Yi's appearance at that time, bringing back all the more than 20 people who were about to break out of the siege. As for the merchants' actions, the gang fight, and how many people died, Mr. Qin and Mr. Kang didn't seem to care much. After all, Su Boyong was assassinated first, and it was a matter of revenge. If you really care, it was probably because Kang Xian felt that Ning Yi should be a person who did big things, and there was no need to take risks for such things. If something really happened, the lives of a few little thieves would not be able to compensate for the losses of the country and the world.
"You invented the Thousand Mile Mile Mile Mile Mile Mile Mile Mile, and you have already sent someone to Tokyo. Here are also stepping up research and production. There are several finished products that have been put into the military formation, which is very useful." Mr. Kang and Mr. Qin were playing chess, shook their heads and threw the thieves from Shibupo, and talked about what they really thought were important.
"It's just that you are so low-key, it's hard to ask for you, which makes people angry... There is a group of technicians in my family. If you are interested, you want to allocate them to you and do something and let them do it. Recently, Xiao Pei and Junwu said that you are touching things related to gunpowder. To be honest, the army has not had no research on such things. I know you have ideas, but after all, it's very dangerous. Even if you really use iron, you may explode and hurt yourself. It's not that the army has tried it. Why don't you talk about your ideas, just leave it to others to do it."
Now the Wu Dynasty army is also studying gunpowder as weapons, with all kinds of messy designs, but they are always inseparable from flashy evaluations. Kang Xian looked at Ning Yi differently, and did not expect him to be injured by studying this. Thinking about the disaster relief booklet and the Qianli Miles Miles, Ning Yi's value is already amazing, not to mention the ability to take care of the country. However, he wanted to promote talents for the country, Ning Yi had his own set of ideas. He and Qin Siyuan had not yet figured out these ideas, so he had to let him go for the time being.
Ning Yi's enthusiasm for muskets is only this for the time being, mainly because of technical limitations. It is not yet time to truly develop this. No matter how much it develops on the gun, it is not as good as a strong crossbow. He has not yet thought about what to do next, so he had to shake his head and refuse Kang Xian's kindness. If he really agrees, it will be a layer of constraint.
"How long will it take to fight?"
When Ning Yi asked about this, Kang Xian also smiled and shook his head: "I don't know. I'm still talking about it. Princess Jingguo has been in charge of this matter for several years. Although I haven't asked much on weekdays, it should be almost done according to the current situation. But now that winter is coming, the weather in Liaodong must be even worse. If the negotiations can be made, maybe there will be a result after spring... What does Qin think?"
Mr. Qin thought about it and nodded: "Although Tong Guan is...hem, although he is a castrator, he is still doing well in his work, but I am a little scared now..."
"What are you afraid of?"
Mr. Qin raised his chess piece and landed it for a long time before he sighed: "I'm afraid of hasty."
Kang Xian had not entered the officialdom, but Mr. Qin was considered a high-ranking and powerful person in the past. Now, Mr. Jingguo, Duke Tong Guan, was also under him at the beginning, and perhaps he had to control him. However, Mr. Qin did not talk much about these things, and at this time he only said a few words to clear the topic. However, Ning Yi could probably see that the old man should have cared about it because he was not willing to say more.
I played chess with Mr. Kang and Qin, saying that there were not many political matters after all. Most of the time, there were still some academic issues, some trivial things that happened in Jiangning City, and I also joked about them.
It was just like this that the end of October, and the relationship between Ning Yi and Su Tan'er became more harmonious. After the weather was cold, everyone gathered in the living room to chat, playing chess and tell stories. It was warm and warm. Su Tan'er still seemed busy these days, but the things she worried about were basically done.
If we look at the entire Su family, we are actually quite busy lately. In the past, the Su family calculated their performance and dividends every year, which was mostly at the end of November and early December. However, this year, the heavy managers from all over the country came a month in advance, and the work they should do at the end of the year has been done one after another. Due to a group of relatives and friends gathered, the Su family was also in a lively state every day, including teahouses and restaurants in the daytime, brothels and Chuguans in the evening. Due to this turning point at the end of October, the Su family's sign became louder and louder in the business world of Jiangning.
Due to these relationships, Su Tan'er was not very idle. After the clan meeting, her cousin Su Danhong often came to accompany her. Ning Yi didn't spend much time alone with her, but the relationship between the couple had settled down anyway. Su Tan'er had his own opinions and didn't need to care too much. However, when she returned home on the afternoon of the fifth day of November, Ning Yi saw Su Tan'er doing something strange.
Although the temperature had dropped, the weather was good that afternoon. Ning Yi went home early and the courtyard seemed quiet. Ning Yi thought there was no one there, but after a look, he found Su Tan'er sitting in the pavilion, facing the small building where he lived, thinking about something.
Theoretically, there should be nothing big after the clan meeting. It is not worth her frowning and distressing like this. Ning Yi looked at it a few times, a little confused, but Su Tan'er seemed to be immersed in her mind, and her expression changed, and she didn't notice him. After a while, she saw her pursing her lips, and seemed to have made a decision, stood up, looked at the small building here deeply, and turned around and walked towards the kitchen next to her.
The expression of making the decision looked a bit childish, which was the expression of a nineteen-year-old girl, but I didn't know what the difficult decision was at this time. Ning Yi shrugged and went back to the room first, and then closed the door. Soon after seeing Su Tan'er's figure emerged from the kitchen in a hurry. He probably thought of something, and walked quickly to the gate of the courtyard and looked at both sides several times. After confirming that there was no one, he returned to the kitchen and brought out a bundle of dry wood.
Su Tan'er cares more about the rules and image on weekdays. If you might help someone when moving goods in the warehouse, you are definitely a lady at home. You can basically not do things like making fires and moving firewood branches. But the atmosphere was indeed quite mysterious at this time. Ning Yi secretly looked out of the room, and Su Tan'er was moving the firewood branches and looking at the small building on her side, and then walked towards the back of the building.
Ning Yi closed the door and followed him quietly. Su Tan'er piled the selected flammable fine firewood branches by the window behind the room where he lived. When placing it, he seemed to have weighed it for a while.
Ning Yi was a little stunned. The decision this woman had made after thinking for a long time was to be prepared to murder her husband? Or was it so cruel to burn it to death?
Not long after, he realized that the development of things was somewhat different from what he thought...
